Songtext von Cimmeria

I remember the dark woods, masking slopes of sombre hills The grey clouds' leaden everlasting arch The dusky streams that flowed without a sound And the lone winds that whispered down the passes Cimmeria, land of darkness and deep night It was so long ago and far away Cimmeria It was a gloomy land that seemed to hold All winds and clouds and dreams that Sun the Sun With bare boughs rattling in the lonesome winds And the dark woodlands brooding over all Cimmeria, land of darkness and deep night Cimmeria Oh soul of mine, born out of shadowed hills To clouds and winds and ghosts that shun the Sun How many deaths shall to break at last This heritage which wraps me in the grey Apparel of ghosts? I search my heart and find Cimmeria Land of darkness and the night It was so long ago and far away I have forgotten the very name men called me I recall only the stillness of that sombre land The clouds that piled forever on the hills The dimness of the everlasting woods Cimmeria, land of darkness and the night
